55 gal drum sterilizers
    #27837692 - 06/26/22 04:44 PM (1 year, 6 months ago)

Learned most of what I know here. I was always looking for a post like this way back. I made these. Forgot off top of head what barrels were rated for but WAY of 15psi. Installed safety release valves at 18psi. Only had them go off a couple times. Probably done 60 ish runs on all 5 of them I built.
Happy to answer any questions.

Uhh 55 gallon barrels are not rated at any pressure because they are not pressure vessels. 18 psi barrel of steam is so unbelievably dangerous.

To be very clear no one should attempt this ever.

There is over 8,000 pounds of force on the lid and bottom of this thing, each, at 18 psi...for a 24" diameter circle at 18psi

while it is insane that these havent exploded on you, yet, you must be within 2 or 3 cunt hairs of making these explode at any moment bro...

:whathesaid:

If you insist on using them, at least install a camera with a blast shield in front of it so you can make a 'HOW IT HAPPENED' thread with video of the explosion.  Make sure to get before and after pictures of the area / buildings so we can see the real world damage radius.

I hope not, but it do be like that.

Friend you are shaking hands with death! Gotta be within a few psi of horrible disaster.

Standard open top barrels will deform around 5-10 psi, I see this is stainless but who knows the thickness and grade but I bet you are really really close to the limits and I'm honestly surprised the ends haven't deformed.

You really should limit this to maybe 5 psi tops.
